Morning Mirror Edition 601 - 26/8/2014


In this edition


1) Editorial

What on earth is happening

Some disturbing figures were sent to me by a fellow Bulawayo lover, figures that were pretty disturbing.

According to Wikipedia there are some very interesting facts about dear old Bulawayo but what is most concerning is to
compare the two following population census figures!!

Bulawayo was founded by the Ndebele king, uMzilikazi kaMatshobana around 1840. In 1897, the new town of Bulawayo acquired the status of municipality, Col. Harry White became the first mayor, and in 1943, Bulawayo became a city.

Bulawayo has long been and is still regarded as the second business capital of Zimbabwe after Harare and is home to the National Railways of Zimbabwe because of its strategic position near Botswana and South Africa.

It is the nearest large city to Hwange National Park, Matobo National Park and Victoria Falls.

Bulawayo is the second largest city in Zimbabwe, after the capital Harare,

But ! In 2009 the population of Bulawayo was recorded as some 1,500,000.
But ! As of the 2012 census, the population is recorded at 653,377.

This is a loss of 846 000 folk! That is eight hundred and forty six thousand people!!

Where have all the Bulawayo residents gone Has no one been born in 3 years

What is happening to our Dear Old Bulawayo



I can certainly relate to your editorial of Mirror 600; the smell of a place, an item or even a relative, evoke the old memories. I can always recall the wonderful smell that emanated through Hamilton High when the fields were being mown, the smell of my father when he gave me a hug, Old Spice, or whatever was in vogue in the early sixties and of course a new car, why they have to give you, vanilla, pine, citrus, apple or some other thing I don't know Then there was the smell of the first rains in Matabeleland, cow-dung in a "kraal" and let's not forget puppies, Wendy wants to bottle it!

Likewise with music, memories come flooding back when you hear a song; I was in the army when, "Me and a dog named Blue", was played by Sally, on Forces Requests, I hated the song, it was put in place of the "Elvis contingent", as there were not sufficient of them in that programme, I was at Pandamatenga then and on Saturday we got out the "pocket" radios to listen and guess where I am transported to when I occasionally hear it, yes, Pandamatenga! I dare not say it, but some songs remind me of the girls, that "I loved before, that travelled in and out my door", you remember, where, when and how far you conquered, when songs come up, hence the sly grin that emanates, whilst listening, wonderful memories!
Colin Jennings

PERFORMING ARTS BULAWAYO AND THE ACADEMY

TITUS
Thursday 28 August in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
'Titus' is a 1999 film adaptation of Shakespeare's revenge tragedy 'Titus
Andronicus' about the downfall of a Roman general. Starring Anthony Hopkins
and Jessica Lange, it was directed by Julie Taymor of 'Lion King' fame who
set the play in an anachronistic fantasy world that uses locations, costumes
and imagery from many periods of history, including Ancient Rome and
Mussolini's Italy, to give the impression of a Roman Empire that survived
into the modern era.
N.B. The film is rated 'no under 18' and contains 'strong sex and violence
and sexual violence themes'.
Admission: $3.00 [free to Film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m.

NO.1: FIRST SYMPHONIES BY SCHUMANN, SIBELIUS AND MAHLER
Friday 29 August in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
Three very different and remarkable first symphonies from Schumann and
Sibelius conducted by Leonard Bernstein and Mahler by Michael Tilson Thomas.
Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members]
Dinner available during the interval ($10.00)

CHARADE
Thursday 4 September in the Robert Sibson Hall at 7.00 p.m.
'Charade' is an elegant thriller that manages to spoof its genre while at
the same time being uncommonly suspenseful. Regina (Audrey Hepburn) is about
to divorce her husband when she finds that he has been murdered after
converting every penny they owned to cash, which is also missing. She meets
Cary Grant who changes his name every 15 minutes or so and is interested in
her husband's money which seems to have come from a payroll he stole. His
partners in crime are also very interested in where the money is, as he
stole it from them as well. Everyone assumes Regina MUST know where the
money is and the situation becomes more tense when the searchers begin
turning up dead....
Admission: $3.00 [free to film members] Supper available from 6.15 p.m.
($6.00)

GLUCK: IPHIGENIE EN AULIDE
Friday 5 September in the Robert Sibson Hall at 6.30 p.m.
Gluck, who was born 300 years ago in 1714, wrote two late operas based on
the legends of Iphigenia, the ill-starred daughter of the Greek King,
Agamemnon. 'Iphigenia in Aulis' concerns the events surrounding the
departure of the Greek fleet to lay siege to Troy. Agamemnon killed a hart
in the sacred grove of the goddess Artemis who then becalmed the Greek fleet
waiting to sail from Aulis to lay siege to Troy.
The second opera, 'Iphigenia en Tauride', will be shown on Friday 3 October.
Admission: $3.00 [free to Red Carpet members] Dinner available during the
interval ($10.00)

Steven William Roberts - Memorial Service to be held at lower Hillside Dams - Thursday 28th August at 3.00pm.


I would like to mention the passing of Kathleen Hoffman in Witbank on 21 August aged 85. Wife to the late Martie Hoffman (Hoffy) who worked on the railways.
Leaves 4 children 11 grand children and 7 great grand children. Mom your smiling face will be missed but will always be in our hearts. Phillip, Sue Graeme and Tarryn.


Georgiades - Helen. Beloved mother of Alex and Ann, grandmother of Nicholas and Christopher. Passed away peacefully in Cape Town on 08 August at the age of 90 years. May her soul rest in peace.


Mike Blackman, former cameraman/audio operator in Byo, has died after a long illness, probably colon cancer. Mike was a talented artist. He published a book of cartoons "How Many Days" about his national service times at Llewellyn barracks,although his real legacy is bound to be the famous RLI statue, cast in bronze and now residing I believe somewhere in SA. RIP Mike, a great guy, sadly missed.


We are sad to announce the passing of Michael Blackman brother to Adrian and Carol Blackman .Remembered for his brilliant statue of "The troopie" which was removed from Zimbabwe after the bush war and is now housed in the UK.Many will remember him for his cartoon book "how Many Days"
Rest in peace Michael and love and prayers go out to Adrian, Carol and Mikes wife and children.


5) Roses And Raspberries
I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed my recent trip to
Bulawayo...how refreshing to see a city where it is clear that
residents have refused to accept living in filth and decay. What a
contrast it is to Harare and to the litter strewn places we saw on our
journey from Chimanimani. Bulawayo suburbs were clean, traffic lights
working and many residents still making a concerted effort with their
verges. Bulawayo residents - you are an inspiration! Keep it going.
Even our tourists recently arrived at Frog & Fern mentioned how lovely
they thought Bulawayo was compared to Harare!

I am sure you have heard about the Ebola outbreak in some parts of West Africa, affecting Nigeria, Sierra Leone, Liberia and Guinea in particular. It's the worst outbreak ever recorded - over 1,000 people have died.
Some of the affected countries have some of the weakest health systems in the world. Not enough trained doctors and nurses. Clinics without enough supplies to diagnose and treat patients. Lack of running water or reliable electricity in some villages is also compounding the crisis.
Just days ago, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak a global health emergency.
This crisis is showing just how important it is to have strong health systems in place. And it's why ONE members like you continue to fight for long-term investments in health.
In this case, governments and institutions around the world are beginning to step up, pledging resources in response to the World Health Organization's emergency appeal.
ONE members have asked us how to help. If our governments don't step up, we'll be calling on you to use your voice. But what you can do is to help educate others about how Ebola spreads and how they can minimise their chances of contracting it.
Many other organisations that deliver vital services are already in West Africa working hard to save lives and protect communities. Find out what they are doing and how you can help.
Thank you


On the morning of Wed 13th August a fire broke out in Ralstein House, the Salvation Army Home for the Elderly. Thankfully no-one was hurt or injured though furniture,clothing, personnel posessions and documents were lost in the fire as the front section of the home was destroyed.
Most of the residents were moved to Enterprise House, the Salvation Army Youth Hostel though this is only a temporary situation, until further accommodation can be found while the state of Ralstein House is addressed in the longer term.
The immediate needs of these residents are for FUNDS (to pay for electricity, water, groceries and medical needs); for FOOD, CLEANING MATERIALS and PERSONAL TOILETRIES.

In addition there is urgent need for WARM JACKETS, JERSEYS, SOX and SHOES, BEDDING and BEDS/MATRESSES.

Finally, SUITCASES or CARDBOARD CARTONS for the residents to keep their possessions in until they have more permanent storage.
All donations may be delivered to ENTERPRISE HOUSE, 12th Ave btwn S. Parirenyatwa and J.Tongogara Aves.

The support and generosity of the Bulawayo community last week was astounding and heart warming; many, many thanks.

Doris Lessing bequeathes her library to Zimbabwe

via Doris Lessing bequeathes her library to Zimbabwe Book Aid International 22 August 2014
Original: http://www.bookaid.org/doris-lessing-bequeathes-her-library-to-zimbabwe/

Doris Lessing, the Nobel Prize-winning author, has donated her entire personal collection of over 3,000 books to the Harare City Library in Zimbabwe and her executors have asked Book Aid International to help.During her life, Lessing was a strong supporter of Book Aid International, so we are particularly glad to be able to help carry out her wishes.

Doris Lessing lived in Zimbabwe (which was then Southern Rhodesia) for 25 years, from 1924 to 1949. She returned in 1956, but was declared a prohibited migrant after speaking out about the Rhodesian regime. She was allowed back to into the country in 1982; and after 1988 she visited Zimbabwe and nurtured two initiatives by the Africa Book Development Organisation and the Africa Community Publishing and Development Trust to provide opportunities for reading and learning through libraries.

Our team, led by Gardner Thompson and volunteers from Lessing's publisher HarperCollins, spent a day this week carefully sorting and packing up Lessing's library in her former home in London. Vanessa Bloor from HarperCollins was fascinated by the variety and breadth of Lessing's library - "A collection to aspire to!" Felicity Highet was inspired to help Book Aid International as she was reading one of Lessing's books, The Golden Notebook, when the call went out for volunteers. Lettice Franklin works for Doris Lessing's editor, and helped to make arrangements for Lessing's memorial service, so she wanted to be there to help make these last arrangements for the author.

We found books not just in every room of Lessing's home, but on shelves in every space where shelves could be fitted, in hallways, under stairs - there were books everywhere. Lessing's collection consists of a wonderful variety of reference books, non-fiction and fiction, poetry, biographies and history books. These books will be deeply appreciated by the people of Zimbabwe, for whom books are a precious but rare resource.

Every year, Book Aid International sends over 50,000 books to Zimbabwe.
Libraries in Zimbabwe often have no budget for new books so in many libraries Book Aid International books comprise up to 80 per cent of their collection.
